Default Chintz - will it work?????

Has anyone ever used chintz to make a quilt? I have so much of it - some from the 50's and some from the 70's. I know that it's tightly woven and will probably be a pain to work with, but unless I want the Laura Ashlely curtain look throughout the house I'm going to have to do something else with the chintz. I think it is also called "polished cotton", so maybe I can pre-wash and get some of the "polish" out. Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks in advance.
